4.9/5 (29986 ratings)
Description:Historical Western Follows Immigration of Author’s KinThree of Sally Eccleston’s great-grandparents take center stage in this romantic novel based on the factual autobiographies of her relatives traveling to America from Scotland in the 1860s and ‘70s. Henry Baird was the author’s maternal great-grandfather, while Catherine Malcolm and Adam Baird were her paternal great-grandparents.A special kind of intuitive belief system was needed for two young adult brothers and a fiancée to each cross the Atlantic alone, starting a new life far from everything and everyone they’d ever known. The brothers left behind their large and very close family forever.Through creative imagination and fortitude, traits picked up through childhoods steeped in fantasy and fairies, Adam and Henry Baird, as well as Adam’s future wife, Catherine Malcolm, were able to overcome dangerous travel and fulfill their spiritual quests in a new land. Adam boards a steamship for America after becoming involved in a scandalous romance with his teacher. When Henry’s girlfriend dies in childbirth, he joins Adam in America, working in the mines in Nevada. Their childhood friend, Catherine, follows to marry Adam. Along the way, she has a romance with her ship’s captain. When her steamer hits an iceberg, she is lucky to survive.The three Scots are all survivors. They become embroiled in Native American unrest, murders, an explosive downtown fire, as well as the dangers of mining. Eventually, Henry becomes a rancher in California and marries Sarah, who dies soon after the birth of their child Katherine, the author’s grandmother. Sometimes truth is more farfetched than fiction!About the Author: A fourth-generation Californian, Sally Eccleston was a medical narrative writer and science/medical editor for many years at hospitals and universities throughout the Bay Area.
